Where to Recycle

Paper, plastic, and beverage container recycling bins are located in all the Residence
Halls on all the floors.

Cardboard recycling can be found outside many of the residence halls in specially
marked bins.

If you decide to recycle, please do not contaminate recyclables with food or wet garbage! For example, a pizza box with sauce and cheese on it should be thrown out with regular
trash. If in doubt, go ahead and put the item in the regular trash.

Recycling Station

We have a drop-off station for your recyclables! Any student, staff, faculty, or Lubbock
community member can take advantage of the drop-off center, and it's accessible twenty-four
hours a day, seven days a week.

This location will accept all the items listed above as well as textiles (clothing,
bedding, towels, etc.)

We do not accept pizza boxes, tissue paper, or any containers with food, tobacco or
trash in them.

All paper must be bagged separate from other recycling. Do not place paper in bags
with other items.

All recycling must be bagged and tied tightly.

Glass bottles and jars are to be placed in the containers marked glass.

Cardboard should be broken down and placed in the blue dumpsters marked CARDBOARD.

The drop off station is located behind Housing Services. There are direction signs located at the Physical Plant parking lot entrances off
of Main and Flint and Main and Hartford (across from the Student Rec Center). The
signs say "TTU Recycling."
